Just took a break from compiling the data I've received on the SharePoint Maturity Model to wireframe my vision for SharePointMaturity.com. Lots of folks have been asking for more information about the Model and a better way to submit their data, and now I know how it feels to be that client with the future vision perfectly crystallized in her head but a scarcity of resources to achieve it.

Based on feedback from the community, the site I'm envisioning includes:

Downloadable self-assesment templates

Case studies, and a gallery of screenshots of environments at different maturity levels

Discussion around the Model, and the ability for anyone to ask questions and provide feedback

Articles, events, and news feeds

Supplemental information such as how staffing requirements and vendor offerings map to the Model

Possibly, alternate versions of the model - for different industries, or for the Cloud.

All I need is a public-facing SharePoint 2010 site, and a catchy logo, of course. (Apparently, the whole world steps aside for the woman who knows where she is going. We'll see!)
